“In Positano, I like the San Pietro Hotel, which is run by a friend whose family has owned the hotel for more than 100 years.”

Travelling so much, sometimes my luggage goes astray. But I can get the right stuff sent to me overnight by a special shipper. No big deal.

Show me success without ego!

I have good legs, and why to hide them?

I tell you, if I’m going to go through a divorce, I would date again a younger man. Because I have so much energy, there’s no way an older man can keep up with me.

If people see your weaknesses they will take advantage of them.

For many years I enjoyed the pleasure of cruising on my yacht all summer long and these were my best holidays. In mid-May, we’d start in St Tropez. I’d collect my bikinis from my home there and then we’d go up to Cannes for the Film Festival, on to Monte Carlo for the Grand Prix and then to Italy.

The most ironic thing is my grandfather has his master’s in music composition; he was a jazz composer. My dad was a musician, too. He played more, like, soul music.

Show me a family of readers, and I will show you the people who move the world.

The great lesson is that the sacred is in the ordinary, that it is to be found in one’s daily life, in one’s neighbors, friends, and family, in one’s backyard.

This is all the inheritance I give to my dear family. The religion of Christ will give them one which will make them rich indeed.
